Amish-Crafted Quality — Made in the USA

This 8-Frame Unassembled Beehive Kit is ideal for both new and experienced beekeepers who prefer hands-on assembly. Built by Amish artisans in Ohio from premium Eastern White Pine, each hive component is precision-cut for a perfect fit and long-lasting durability.

With one deep brood box, this setup is perfect for smaller colonies, splits, or hobbyist beekeepers expanding their apiary. All frames and foundations are included, making it easy to build a complete, professional-grade hive at home.

Why Choose an 8-Frame Hive?

8-frame hives weigh about 20 % less than 10-frame models—easier to lift, inspect, and manage—while maintaining full Langstroth compatibility and strong honey-producing performance.
